04: In Boston

Deplaned about an hour ago. There were armed guards all through Logan International. They didn’t do or say much, but just seeing them around is ominous. They look at everyone like we’re all potentially guilty of something heinous. The Airport TVs are on, here, and tuned to Cartoon Network instead of CNN or MSNBC or even Fox News. Again, I’m not one to put too much into conspiracy theories, but I have to wonder if they’re hiding something from us? And who ‘they’ is.

Everyone on the plane including the flight attendants were throwing all kinds of stories around. Dallas and Denver were only two of the places people had flown in from. O’Hare in Chicago, Birmingham, Nashville . . . it was everywhere. Whatever it is, it’s wide-spread.

I’m waiting for one of the news agencies to blow the lid off whatever it is. Even Reddit is useless. The ‘zombie’ hypothesis is

Someone just yelled out that the president is having a press conference in a few minutes. Everyone is leaving to find TVs. Later!
